The Friday Show Presented by Monmouth Park: Haskell Preview Day

With the 2022 Triple Crown in the history books and no dominant leader in the 3-year-old division, racing fans begin to look ahead to important summer Grade 1 contests like the TVG.com Haskell Stakes at Monmouth Park on July 23 and the Runhappy Travers at Saratoga on Aug. 27.

In this week's Friday Show, Ray Paulick and bloodstock editor Joe Nevills reflect on this year's top 3-year-olds and project who could be at the top of the heap at year's end. In addition to the individual Triple Crown race winners – Rich Strike in the Kentucky Derby, Early Voting in the Preakness and Mo Donegal in the Belmont – the division includes the unbeaten Jack Christopher, a sensational winner of the G1 Woody Stephens on the Belmont Stakes undercard who is being pointed to the Haskell.

Saturday is Haskell Preview Day at the Jersey Show, with four stakes (three graded), including the G3 Salvator Mile that has lured Hot Rod Charlie, who finished in the 2021 Haskell but was disqualified for stretch interference. This will be the Doug O'Neill runner's first race since a runner-up performance to Country Grammer in the Dubai World Cup in March.

The Friday Show Presented By Monmouth Park: Where Are All The Horses?

The Triple Crown comes to a close with Saturday's Belmont Stakes, the culmination of a three-day racing festival at Belmont Park offering stakes for virtually every division of Thoroughbreds on both dirt and turf at the Elmont, N.Y., track. And while most of the best horses in training are participating, many of the races wound up with small fields: four starters in Friday's Bed o' Roses; five each in Saturday's Acorn, Just A Game, Ogden Phipps and Met Mile, and six in the Woody Stephens. All are grade 1 events with the exception of the G2 Bed o' Roses.

In this week's Friday Show, Ray Paulick and bloodstock editor Joe Nevills discuss what's contributing to the field size crisis, including the disconnect between the shrinking foal crop (minus 45 percent since 2008) and the number of American Graded Stakes scheduled in 2022 (only 7 percent fewer than in 2008).

What will it take for the alarming downward trend in field size to be reversed, in light of the lack of cooperation among racetracks and the absence of leadership in industry organizations to address the issue?
